As a rule, source text print type is determined automatically. To ensure that this is the case, select Autodetect in the Print Type group in the Legacy Options dialog (to open the Legacy Options dialog, click the Legacy Options... button on the General tab in the Options dialog).
When recognizing draft mode dot matrix printouts or typewritten texts, recognition quality can sometimes be increased by selecting another print type:
An example of draft mode dot matrix text. Character lines are made up of individual dots. | |
An example of typewritten text. All letters are of equal width (compare, for example, "w" and "a"). |
Select the print type of your choice in the Print Type group in the Legacy Options dialog (to open the Legacy Options dialog, click the Legacy Options... button on the General tab in the Options dialog).
Note: Once you have completed recognition of typewritten texts or dot matrix printouts, remember to re-enable the Autodetect item to recognize normal texts once again.
